About this study

During acute coronary syndrome, the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association recommend oxygen delivery to patients with less than 90% oxygen saturation. Oxygen therapy in these patients for a duration of at least 6 hours, but also stipulates that it is reasonable to administer oxygen to all acute coronary syndrome patients during the first six hours following the presentation. Hyperoxia also has well-established risks.

Our research hypotheses are:

(I) that current practices tend to use high oxygen flows resulting in high SpO2 levels during acute coronary syndrome.

(II) there is a high rate of desaturation in patients with acute coronary syndrome and an automatic adaptation of oxygen flows may reduce this frequency.

(III) that excessive oxygenation targets have no advantage. Our hypothesis is that maintaining a SpO2 of 90 to 94% is at least equivalent when compared to higher saturation objectives (SpO2 of 94 to 100%) with regard to the occurrence of complications in the patient in acute coronary syndrome . We will use two SpO2 targets with the FreeO2 system, 92 and 97%.

Read the detailed description

Hypoxemia is a common problem encountered during acute coronary syndrome. During acute coronary syndrome, the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association recommend oxygen delivery to patients with less than 90% oxygen saturation. Oxygen therapy in these patients for a duration of at least 6 hours , but also stipulates that it is reasonable to administer oxygen to all acute coronary syndrome patients during the first six hours Following the presentation. However, the studies underlying these guidelines are few and far between, most of them having been done more than forty years ago.

Hyperoxia also has well-established risks.

Our research hypotheses are:

(I) that current practices tend to use high oxygen flows resulting in high SpO2 levels during acute coronary syndrome.

(II) there is a high rate of desaturation in patients with acute coronary syndrome and an automatic adaptation of oxygen flows may reduce this frequency. This will be our primary endpoint and will be tested with the use of the automated oxygen delivery system.

(III) that excessive oxygenation targets have no advantage. Our hypothesis is that maintaining a SpO2 of 90 to 94% is at least equivalent when compared to higher saturation objectives (SpO2 of 94 to 100%) with regard to the occurrence of complications in the patient in acute coronary syndrome . We will use two SpO2 targets with the FreeO2 system, 92 and 97%.

    Also called Usual oxygen administration

    In the control group, usual oxygen administration and titration is planned

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Control groupOtherIn this group, the nursing staff administed oxygen supply if necessary with the usual pratice in care unit for 24 hours after myocard infarction. In this group the SpO2 was recorded any time with FreeO2 device - recording mode.
Receives: Device: Automated oxygen administration
FreeO2 with SpO2 target = 92%OtherIn this group oxygen flow was automatically adjusted with the FreeO2 device (automatic titration of oxygen flow) to achived SpO2 target set by clinicial for 24 hours after myocard infarction. In this group, the SpO2 target was set at 92%.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The frequency of significant desaturations (SpO2 <90% for at least 30 seconds)

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Significant rhythm disorders, ischemic events

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. The percentage of time spent in the target SpO2 area in the second and third groups, defined as SpO2 +/- 2% of the targeted SpO2 (range 90-94% for group 92% and range 95-99% for group 97%)

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Automated oxygen administration in people with Infarction, Myocardial, run by Laval University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The frequency of significant desaturations (SpO2 <90% for at least 30 seconds) (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Dec 2017.
